Spacedraw review

Arion 1.6.0 reviewSpacedraw is a new 3D modelling application available on the Android market and to this time it’s the only one which can be called full-featured. The application is developed by a company called Scalisoft and it’s compatible with almost all tablets and larger smartphones running the Android OS. This means that you can model, edit and even texture your models on the way and basically anywhere where you can use your device. It takes the full advantage of the multi-touch input and motion sensors and divides the screen to active areas where every area is intended for a different action. The interface is designed to be fast to learn for novices, and fast to relearn for experts. However, Spacedraw is a large program and introduces a multitude of novel concepts, so learning it may take some effort.
